Revision 1 – Review of policy, update to Section 54 for large companies – not relevant to us but principles still apply.
Revision 2 – Updated further to review with HardHats.
Marval Marine Services Ltd are committed to ensuring that subcontractors it engages are not subject to behaviour or threats that may amount to modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and or similar human rights abuses.
We are also committed to ensuring our approach to tackling modern slavery in our own business and throughout our supply chains is consistent with our disclosure obligations under the Modern Slavery Act 2015. We all have a responsibly to be alert to the risks, however small, in our business and in the wider supply chain.
This statement sets out Marval Marine’s actions to understand all potential modern slavery risks related to the business and to ensure steps are maintained to prevent both slavery and human trafficking.
Our Business
We are a marine maintenance business carrying out maritime painting and civil works.
Our Processes for Managing Risk
In order to assess the risk of modern slavery, we use the following processes:
-
Identify and assess potential risk areas when considering taking on new suppliers and regularly review our existing supply chains
-
Review the potential for risk at regular intervals, including the possibility of re-auditing a supplier or conducting spot checks.
-
Protect whistle blowers.
After due consideration, we have not identified any significant risks of modern slavery, forced labour, or human trafficking in our supply chain, through constant questioning and demanding proof of legal status. However, we continue to be alert to the potential for problems.
Our Commitment
This statement is made pursuant to section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and constitutes Marval Marine Services slavery and human trafficking statement for the financial year ending 31 October 2026. It has been approved by the Managing Director, who will review and update it annually.
